2012 Election Open Thread

Will this country go the way of Europe or will we turn it around. We will find out in a few hours.

Allah has a excellent post up describing how Romney can win today, or lose. Check it out and while your at it put up any interesting stories you read in the comments below.

Interesting:

OHIO EARLY VOTE: In Obama’s 10 best counties, turnout is down -6.5% vs. ’08. Everywhere else, turnout is up 10.5%
Turnout in VA’s Obama counties 83.3% of ’08, VA McCain 86.7% (3.4% gap). OH’s Obama counties 96.7% of ’08, OH McCain 114.4% (17.7% gap).
OHIO EARLY VOTE: In 2008, Dem counties cast 417,581 more early votes than GOP counties. In 2012, Dem counties cast only 295,510 more.
VA EARLY VOTE: So good news for Obama is that early voting still higher in Obama counties, bad news is the gap much smaller than in ’08.
All this coming from Dave Wasserman @redistrict. Validates ADrian Gray’s research and it undermines this ludicrous, unsupported claim by the Obama people about their “tremendous” early voter advantage. Wiped out. BIG news
